I had already installed DJGPP at work and it worked fine (Windows 2K). I installed it at home on my XP system and it didn't work. I installed it at home on my Vista machine and it didn't work. I took my Vista laptop to work, copied the complete install from my W2K machine onto my Vista machine and it now works. I have no idea why. I did all of this installing over a period of 3 days so I don't think I was doing anything differently each time. I don't need it on my XP home machine so I deleted it. As a hardware engineer, I find all this very puzzling but its now all working so I'll move on. Do I need to file an update to the bug or can you just close it out? Thanks for following up.

You have to use a djgpp-aware unzip program to install, or the filenames get all messed up. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30741
